Failed installation of Notes 85.1. fp3

While trying to upgrade to Notes 8.5.1. fp3 from 8.5.1, I get the following error.“Error - version mismatch. Expected to find “20091002.1006”, found version(s): 20090929.1223.”

Why cant I go from Notes 8.5.1?

Do I have to install fp1 and fp2 prior to fp3?

We had the same, even with a fresh install of Notes.Best you can do is to change the fix.ini located in your FP3 install directory (where you unpacked the files).

Change the line ForVersion= to your installed release, see the example below:

[HOTFIX]

Version=FP3NW

NotesFixPath=fixpack.exe

;ForVersion=20091002.1006

ForVersion=20090929.1223

Release=8.5.1

ProductName=IBM Lotus Notes 8.5.1 FP3NW

After changing the ForVersion to your installed build number it will run just fine I guess…

Subject: This is a workaround floating around, but the XPD part will not be installed correctly, then!

Subject: Are you using the free Lotus Domino Designer version?

You need the appropriate Non-Warranted_DeveloperWorks_Domino_Designer_851FP3NW_W32, then

Subject: Thanks for your interest…solved.

Apparently I was using the wrong exe-file.Choosed another and now it is working.

Thanks

Subject: You might be using the wrong Fixpack

You do not have to install FP1 or FP2 first

Note the following from the link:

Domino Designer & Domino Administrator

If running Notes 8.5.1 Basic Configuration or Notes/Admin (Basic edition) 8.5.1, use the Notes 8.5.1 Fix Pack 3 Basic install.

If running Notes 8.5.1 Standard Configuration or Notes/Admin/Designer (Standard edition) 8.5.1, use the Notes 8.5.1 Fix Pack 3 Standard install.
